Suggest Treatment For Motor Neuron Disease

I was diagnosed with motor neuron disease. I cannot walk and my arms and abdominal muscles are weak. I started with ozone treatment and I want to know if it will be worth buying an ozone machine to continue treatment at home? I don t know yet if the treatment works. What is your opinion about ozone treatment?

I read your question carefully.

I wish I could say that there is a proven treatment for motor neuron disease. Unfortunately there is no such treatment with proven benefit until now, at least not by trials. The only approved medication is riluzole, but it only slows progression of the condition, it does not reverse it.
So as a professional I can not recommend ozone treatment for now.

I wish I could have been of more help. I hope things work out for the best.
